Is it made of 18/10 stainless steel?--and does it fit in a 3 qt. or 4 qt pot?

It doesn't say 18/10 anywhere that I can find. The mesh is 7.25" dia, and the rim is 8.25" dia. Approx. 5" deep with the feet.

I recently bought this same pot only to find out it holds only 17 qts filled to the very top.My pot measures approx 13" tall with lid,10-1/4" without. Inside diameter near top is 11-5/8".About midway down pot begins to flare out to 12-1/4" at largest point then gets smaller again near bottom. Encapsulated bottom diameter is 10-5/8".Total width across handles is 18". Hope this helps!

So very sorry that I do not know if the unit is made of 18/10 stainless steel. Please try to contact Excalibur for that type of answer, as it is not mentioned in the description. I can tell you that it is easy to keep clean and I've been extremely pleased with the purchase.

The pot is 18/8 stainless steel. Not flimsy, very sturdy and cleans up nicely.

The 3 quart version comes with a 10" lid. It's glass with a solid handle and fits perfectly. I'm very happy with it still.

I use mine in my 3-qt. saucepan and my 4-qt. soup pot. It fits perfectly in either one.

I believe it is a 3 quart pot. I was also not quite know how to make of it since the pot did not show 3 quarts under the pot and no paperwork came with the pot.

I believe it's 12 qt. Its huge. The biggest pot I have gotten with a set and has a steamer insert to fit.

It's three quart. I bought 2 of them and one got left on the stove too long and lived! Better quality than I expected after months of daily use.

It nests inside the 5 qt perfectly. I doubt very much it will fit in a smaller pot. Check dimensions.

I don't know, but I have owned it for about a month and love it. I use stainless for all my cooking having been scared by all the hype of aluminum and Alzheimer's. This pan is a good weight and the two handles make it easy to handle. The dishwasher cleans it well after a cursory scouring with a scratchy pad. I think the manufacturer specs would list the 18/10 issue question answer.

Yes the lid fits the 3 qt saucepan. I haven't tried it with any other size pits.
